Cabinet Making questions, answered by experts

Unless otherwise specified in the manufacturer’s instructions, in most cases you should attach the hinges to the cabinet door before attaching it to the cabinet frame. Once you attach the hinge to the door, you can then align it with the cabinet frame and screw it firmly into place. Be sure to consult the manufacturer’s instructions for best practices.

While it’s possible to purchase RTA inset cabinets that you assemble yourself, DIYing the installation may not be advisable unless you have advanced carpentry skills. That’s because the cabinet boxes, drawers, and doors all need to be perfectly level and precisely aligned in order for everything to open and close properly. This becomes even more challenging if your walls aren’t plumb or your floors and ceilings aren’t perfectly level.

The cost to install soft-close drawers is usually around $40 to $100 each when hiring a professional. If you’re looking to DIY, you can pick up soft-close drawer slides for anywhere from $5 to $230 each, depending on the quality and quantity. This price range may vary based on whether you choose a heavy-duty, side mount, under mount, or self-closing slide.

If your cabinet doors feel too low or too high, you may have an issue with your hinges as well. Try tightening the screws on your hinges. If that doesn’t work, you can loosen your screws on the hinges, adjust the door slightly up or down and then tighten them again.

Any of your garage shelves should be able to hold heavier loads, but it’s best to place heavier items on middle shelves. The only reason for this is to prevent injury—lifting heavy loads from down low requires squatting or bending over, which can lead to back injury, and lifting heavy loads off of high shelves in the garage can be especially dangerous if you drop them.
